Frequency Tuning in Short-Wave Gyrotrons with Irregular Cavities

  • Published:
Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics Aims and scope

We study the process of frequency tuning of a cyclotron resonance maser with a quasiregular sectioned cavity, which is based on gyrotron excitation of a higher longitudinal mode. It is shown that a regime can be achieved, in which the generation frequency varies fast (during one pulse) with no variation in the power of the output radiation.
